Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The results obtained in the experimental conditions, enable to conclude that the test product is slightly irritant for eye (max O.I. = 4) according to the classification established in the Journal Officiel de la République Française date July 10th, 1992 and must not be classified according to the criteria of classification, packaging and labelling of dangerous substances in compliance with the E.E.C Directive 67/548 and 99/ 45
Executive summary:

An in vivo study was performed on New Zealand albino rabbit according to OECD guidelines number 405 of February 24, 1987 and EEC guidelines 67/548.

The test item was intilled in the eye of 3 rabbits, by a 0.1 ml dosage. The eye was not rinsed.

The results obtained in the experimental conditions, enable to conclude that the test product is slightly irritant for eye (max O.I. = 4) according to the classification established in the Journal Officiel de la République Française date July 10th, 1992 and must not be classified according to the criteria of classification, packaging and labelling of dangerous substances in compliance with the E.E.C Directive 67/548 and 99/ 45.
